Imagine this being your spouse. Everybody and their mother warned against NFTs! The very same people warning against AI now. Nobody's listening to us though. And there are about to be a LOT more homeless folks when that bubble bursts too.

Agreed. It's heartbreaking when I see teachers telling kids to "just use AI for the art part" because it can do it "better" or "faster". It can't. Please don't do this to kids. You have no idea whose artistic spirit you're crushing. Same with writing. Help them figure out how to do it THEMSELVES.
I'm a comics creator. Every time I lead a workshop with kids, I see their absolute joy in drawing with their OWN HANDS. If you deny kids that joy by forcing them to type prompts into a computer, you're failing as an educator.

Shame on you for this.

Rahm as CHI mayor, 2021 @ms.now: “There is no incident in recent Chicago history that has created such distrust of City Hall & the police department than then-Mayor Rahm Emanuel’s unsuccessful legal battle to keep under wraps the dashcam video showing Officer Jason Van Dyke shoot the teen 16 times.”

My brain weirdly goes to the opposite of this - a Teen Clark, feeling out of place and not knowing why, and being taken away to a Kryptonian-Oz. The Emerald City even looks like Kandor.

The "We're not in, etc, etc" really does sort of make it work a bunch, right? There's fun stuff here.

The combination of "Superman is vulnerable to magic" along with "Why are the Emerald City and the Wicked Witch of the West green?" definitely mean Clark and Toto aren't gonna wipe the floor with Oz folks!
Has DC ever done a "Superman in Oz" team up of Kansas' greatest duo of Krypto & Toto?

If not, @paulkaminski.bsky.social get on it

Bless Michael Sheen for copying John Oliver! In 2016 Last Week Tonight used $60K to buy & forgive ~$15M in US debt.

“Carp was offered a portfolio of medical debt worth $14,922,261.76 at a cost of ‘less than half a cent on a dollar, which is less than $60,000’.”

Michael Sheen is just. An exemplary human being in so many ways
The actor Michael Sheen used all his money to start a fake debt collecting business, buy 900 people in Wales's debt, and excused it. If Musk bought ALL $194 billion in medical debt in the U.S. and excused it in the same way, he'd still be the world's riches man by hundreds of billions of dollars.

Wishing you all a delightfully spooky December!

In 19th century England & the USA, Halloween was the time for ROMANCE and Christmas was the time for SPOOKY ghost stories! That's why Dickens' Christmas Carol had ghosts.
